Lakers in 5.

This might be the best 7 seed ever. They might be the only 7 seed favored to win the entire thing.

It is bad luck for the Suns to get this matchup after such a good season in Phoenix.

For some stupid reason game 2 of the Lakers/Suns and Mavs/Clippers is basically at the same time

Four game 1’s on Sunday and we get the one with JvG and Mark Jackson

Here we go with 48 minutes of how they used to do things differently back in their day

The Lakers have a lot of big bodies in AD, Drummond, and even James.

Plus, we're deep. Schroder didn't play well last night but it might take him a few games to recover from Covid. Maybe even this series, but we have players to throw at CP in Schroder, Caruso and Matthews.

Could have been worse. You could have drawn Doris Burke. That bitch’s voice just grates on me.

He didn't actually have Covid, just violated protocol. His stamina will suffer from being out for two weeks, but that was just a bad matchup for him last night. Steph was running him ragged. CP is more physical and deliberate, a total different cover (and much better - and dirtier - defender).

That said, Lakers just beat them recently pretty easily without Lebron and Schroder. Did the Suns take them lightly? Maybe. Suns beat the Lakers once when both Lebron and AD were out and once with AD out. This will be the closest to a full strength matchup since preseason, at least from the Lakers side.
